No, you're not - this is one possible solution.  I'm curious about other
ones (with this one, instead of clocking out of a task, I'd have to
clock in "misc" - I don't have a habit like that, why not have Emacs
handle that for me?  Now that I wrote it, I guess I could inject
something in one of the hooks...)
